background: bone marrow has recently been recognized as a novel source of stem cells for the treatment of wide range of diseases. a number of studies on murine bone marrow have shown a homogenous population of rare stage-specific embryonic antigen 1 (ssea-1) positive cells that express markers of pluripotent stem cells. this study focuses on ssea-1 positive cells isolated from murine bone marro...

Objective(s) Bone marrow is the traditional source of human multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), but adipose tissue appears to be an alternative and more readily available source. In this study, rat adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were induced to differentiate into Schwann-like cells and compared with rat bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) for their Schwann-like cells differentiation pote...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) niche plays a critical role in determining cellular behavior during bone development including the differentiation and lineage allocation of skeletal progenitor cells to chondrocytes, osteoblasts, or marrow adipocytes. As major ECM component mineralized tissues, collagen has instructive as well structural roles is required for cell differentiation. Cells sense the...

objective(s):in previous investigations, we have shown para-nonylphenol (p-np) caused significant reduction of proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) in vitro. in this study, we first treat the rats with p-np, then carried out the biochemical and morphological studies on mscs. materials and methods: proliferation property of cells was evaluated with t...

Bone undergoes continuous remodelling throughout adult life, and the equilibrium between bone formation by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts defines the final bone mass. Here we show that Snail1 regulates this balance by controlling osteoblast differentiation. Snail1 is necessary for the early steps of osteoblast development, and it must be downregulated for their final differentia...

Background: This article reviews experimental and clinical studies in which neural injuries repaired with bone marrow stromal cells. History: Bone marrow contains two kinds of stem cells: hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic (stromal) stem cell. In vitro studies indicate that bone marrow stromal cells have the capacity of differentiation into other cells (such as neural cell) under treatment wit...

Background: The article aims to review osteogenic differentiation enhancement in human Dental Pulp Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hDPMSCs). Material and Methods: literature was carried out PUBMED with the keywords: (hDPMSCs) differentiation. Conclusions: Many research investigated impact of different compounds on hDPMSCs appliance by which these promote osteogenesis are a potential source for bone reg...

background: the mechanism of cadmium induced osteoporosis is not well understood, so in this study, we examined the toxicity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (mscs) following treatment of rats with cdcl2 in drinking water, to revile the effect of this chemical on differentiation potential of mscs. methods: at the end of third passage, mscs were grown in the osteogenic medium for 21 days. to...
